Fact-checking Policy

About Election Analyst Fact Check

Election Analyst Fact Check is the independent verification and disinformation-monitoring arm of ElectionAnalyst.com, dedicated to preserving truth, accuracy, and transparency in election coverage across the globe.

We exist to challenge political misinformation, hold power to account, and provide citizens, researchers, and institutions with clear, evidence-backed electoral data and verification — free from political interference, commercial bias, or legal suppression.

What We Do

Our fact-checking team conducts deep, multi-source verification across the following areas:

Candidate claims & speeches

Party manifestos and political advertisements

Viral misinformation on social media platforms

Election-related conspiracy theories

Ballot process and voter fraud allegations

Fake polls and manipulated election data

False claims on election integrity and foreign interference

Each fact check is based on documented public records, open-source intelligence (OSINT), official data, and direct communication with relevant authorities where possible.

Methodology

Multiple-source triangulation

Use of official election commission data, court rulings, and legislative archives

Timestamped screenshot archiving of social media content

Contact with parties or individuals for clarification (when feasible)

All conclusions labelled with evidence levels (True, Misleading, Partially True, False, etc.)

Our standards follow international frameworks including the International Fact-Checking Network (IFCN) code of principles.

Research Independence

Our fact-checking operation is completely editorially independent from political institutions, donors, or advertisers

No party, government, or corporation may influence our publication decisions

We do not accept sponsored political content
